We are analysing data about complaints for the presence of cocroaches in 10 residential buildings. Using a Bayesian framework, we modelled the number of complaints using a Poisson model. Diagnostic analysis of the model highlights some residual variability. We decided to try to improve our estimates adding one predictor and an exposure term to the Poisson model, but the situation did not improve. The ‘Poisson’ assumption on the model variance turned out to be too restrictive to model our data. The Negative Binomial model gave better results, but examining the standardized residual plot we noticed that some of them were still very large.
A posterior predictive check considering that the data are clustered by building.

10 Consider to extend your model adding a log-additive monthly effect \(\texttt{mo}_t\).
select_vec <- which(stan_dat_hier$mo_idx %in% 1:12)
ppc_stat_grouped(
y = stan_dat_hier$complaints[select_vec],
yrep = y_rep[,select_vec],
group = stan_dat_hier$mo_idx[select_vec],
stat = 'mean'
) + xlim(0, 11)
The linear predictor of the random intercept and random slope Negative Binomial model is then:
\[ \eta_{bt} = \mu_{b} + \kappa_{b} \, \texttt{traps}_{bt} + \texttt{mo}_t + \text{log_sq_foot}_b \]
Then define an autoregressive prior on the monthly effects:
\[ \texttt{mo}_t \sim \text{Normal}(\rho \, \texttt{mo}_{t-1}, \sigma_\texttt{mo}) \\ \equiv \\ \texttt{mo}_t = \rho \, \texttt{mo}_{t-1} +\epsilon_t , \quad \epsilon_t \sim \text{Normal}(0, \sigma_\texttt{mo}) \\ \quad \rho \in [-1,1] \]
Using the stationary assumption of the AR models, find the marginal distribution for \(\texttt{mo}_1\).
The marginal variance:
\[Var(\texttt{mo}_{t})=Var(\rho \texttt{mo}_{t-1}) + Var(\epsilon_t)\] by independence of \(\epsilon_{t-1}\) and \(\epsilon_{t}\). Then, by stationarity \[Var(\texttt{mo}_{t})=\rho^2 Var(\texttt{mo}_{t}) + \sigma^2_{mo}\] \[Var(\texttt{mo}_{t})=\frac{\sigma^2_{mo}}{1-\rho^2}\]
The marginal mean \[E(\texttt{mo}_{t})=E(\rho \texttt{mo}_{t-1}) + E(\epsilon_t)\] \[E(\texttt{mo}_{t})=\frac{0}{1-\rho}=0\]
for \(\rho\ne 1\).
Thus,
\[\texttt{mo}_{1} \sim Normal\left (0,\frac{\sigma_{mo}}{\sqrt{1-\rho^2}} \right)\]
Use the follow setting to define the prior on the parameter \(\rho\):
\[ \rho_{\text{raw}} \in [0, 1] \\ \rho = 2 \times \rho_{\text{raw}} - 1\\ \rho_{\text{raw}} \sim Beta(10,5) \]
